Abstract: Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the potential risk factors for pediatric obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS)and their possible synergistic effects. Methods Three hundred and twenty-one children with OSAHS diagnosed by polysomnography and a control group comprising 321 children matched for age and sex but without obstruction of the upper respiratory tract were enrolled between January 2016 and January 2017. The data from cases and controls were analyzed retrospectively. Results Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that adenoid hypertrophy, tonsil hypertrophy, and chronic sinusitis were independent risk factors for pediatric OSAHS(P<0.05). The incidence of pediatric OSAHS was 3.229 78 times higher when chronic sinusitis was present than when it was not(P<0.001). When compared with grade Ⅰ tonsils, the ORs for grade Ⅱ, grade Ⅲ, and grade Ⅳ tonsils were 1.596 58(P=0.032 2), 2.306 52(P=0.000 8), and 4.430 85(P<0.001), respectively. When compared with grade Ⅰ adenoids, the ORs for grade Ⅱ, grade Ⅲ, and grade Ⅳ adenoids were 1.804 33(P=0.005 1), 2.883 38(P<0.001), and 3.220 91(P=0.000 2), respectively. Stratification analysis showed that the degree of adenoid hypertrophy was greater in patients with chronic sinusitis and was associated with a gradual increase in risk of OSAHS(P=0.004 1). Conclusion The causes of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in children are multifactorial. Adenoid hypertrophy, tonsil hypertrophy, and chronic sinusitis may be potential risk factors for pediatric OSAHS. Chronic sinusitis could act synergistically with hypertrophic adenoids to increase the risk of OSAHS.

[9] To describe characteristics and risk factors associated with central serous chorioretinopathy(CSC)in a hospital-based outpatient sample population. MethodsIn this hospital-based cross-sectional study, CSC patients were recruited from the Beijing Friendship Hospital from 01/2019 to 12/2019. All participants underwent a standardized interview. Logistic regression models were used to assess the risk factors associated with CSC. ResultsA total of 23,878 outpatients were recorded during the period 01/2019-12/2019. Of these, 45 patients(0.19%)were diagnosed with CSC, divided in 37 male patients(82.22%)and 8 female patients(17.78%). The patients′ age ranged from 21 to 65(42.3±10.1)years. Three patients(6.67%)presented a bilateral involvement. Of all the patients, 39 were included in the present analysis. Control patients were matched for age and sex at a ratio of 1:1. The presence of CSC was associated with exposure to steroids(OR=5.04, 95% CI:1.11-22.89), sleep time(going to sleep after 12 pm)(OR=4.16, 95% CI:1.33-13.04)),and shift-work(OR=5.74, 95% CI:1.47-22.45).ConclusionsOur data showed that CSC prevalence in the analyzed outpatients was 0.19%. Exposure to steroids, sleep time, and shift-work were factors related with CSC in the observed population..

[10] This study was conducted to explore the preoperative risk factors for postoperative adhesion in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis(CRS)undergoing functional endoscopic sinus surgery(FESS), and to construct a risk score model to evaluate their predictive effect. MethodsA retrospective study was conducted on 323 patients with CRS who underwent FESS at our hospital between January 2015 and June 2018. The risk factors for postoperative adhesion were screened using a multivariate logistic regression analysis. The risk score was assigned according to the odds ratio(OR)value, and a receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to evaluate the predictive effect. ResultsPostoperative adhesion occurred in 35 patients(10.8%). The logistic regression results showed that concha bullosa, primary FESS, operative experience less than 10 years, and a history of middle turbinate resection were independent risk factors for postoperative adhesion in FESS. The OR values were 1.12(95% CI: 1.06-1.18), 3.87(95% CI: 2.23-5.51), 3.19(95% CI: 2.07-4.31), and 2.24(95% CI:1.95-2.53), respectively. The risk score model assigned 1 point for vesicular middle turbinate, 4 points for first time FESS, 3 points for operative experience less than 10 years, and 2 points for middle turbinate resection. The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)was 0.784(95% CI: 0.672-0.896, P<0.05). When 4 points were selected as the cut-off point, the Jordan index was the largest, with a sensitivity of 75.1% and a specificity of 73.6%. ConclusionThe incidence of postoperative adhesion in 323 patients with CRS who underwent FESS was 10.8%. The risk score model has certain reference value for predicting high-risk postoperative adhesion..
